ZEEKR 009, DENZA D9, Xpeng X9, Trumpchi E9...... In the naming of luxury MPVs, automobile companies invariably chose "9", so the "9 Series Tiantuan" naturally formed a team, and the scale is constantly expanding. Now, there is another "newcomer" - Wind Planet Sea V9.
On April 18, Dongfeng Fengxing released a new new energy sequence in Beijing - Wind Planet Sea, its first luxury new energy flagship MPV - Wind Planet Sea V9 also opened global pre-sale at the same time, the pre-sale price is 199,900 yuan, a total of "Chinese knot", "Qingyun Ladder" 2 sequences a total of 5 versions, at the same time, this time also provides a limited pre-sale of 1000 1.5TD PHEV 100km strength version of the model, the pre-sale price is only 179,900 yuan.
Speaking of Dongfeng Fengxing, the creator of the Wind Planet Sea V9, as a veteran domestic commercial and passenger amphibious car company, it has announced the "Photosynthetic Future" strategy since the end of 2022 and has fully entered the new energy track. Lin Changbo, General Manager of Dongfeng Liuzhou Automobile Co., Ltd., said: "As the 'innovation test field' of the Group's new energy territory, Dongfeng Fengxing has accelerated its entry into a new era of new energy with actions. In November 2022, we officially released the new energy strategy - 'PS-CC Future' plan, announcing that Dongfeng Fengxing will comprehensively lay out the new energy track. We plan to achieve 100% electrification within three years, stop producing gasoline vehicles within five years, and become a mainstream new energy brand preferred by Chinese young people by 2025. We have always kept this original intention and goal in mind, and now in April 2024, we can confidently say that we have achieved our goal of electrification one year ahead of the curve. ”
As the culmination of Dongfeng Fengxing's acceleration of the new energy revolution, Wind Planet Sea is not only a milestone for Dongfeng Fengxing to take the initiative to attack the new energy wave, but also an exploration and attempt for Dongfeng Fengxing to have an in-depth insight into user needs and achieve more better life with users. To this end, Dongfeng Fengxing has set up a special technical team of more than 1,000 people in the early stage of the project, and will continue to invest 20 billion yuan by 2030.
It is precisely with the huge investment of manpower and financial resources that the wind planet sea can "give everything" as soon as it is born. The Mach electric hybrid PHREV power system of "pure electric + hybrid + extended range" is jointly developed by Dongfeng Fengxing and "coordinate system intelligence", and is equipped with the EMB+SBW electronic wire control system for the first time in the world, and the stargazer head-up display system has an imaging size of 50 inches, 1080 resolution, in addition to intelligent optical technology, Fx-Driver pilot intelligent driving system, etc. As Lin Changbo said, "Consumers want everything, and it is best to give everything".
As the first model of Xinghai, the Wind Planet Sea V9 is naturally prepared. The Wind Planet Sea V9 adopts the traditional Chinese design language to create two Chinese aesthetic double front face designs: Chinese knot and Qingyun ladder. Among them, the front face of the Chinese knot blesses Chinese families with the meaning of "perfect", while the front face of the Qingyun Ladder uses the progressive nine horizontal grille shapes to imply that the green clouds are rising step by step, paying tribute to the new generation of urban elites.
Of course, as a flagship pure electric SUV, the space layout of the Wind Planet Sea V9 is the focus of attention. The front row of the supreme first class, the second row of the versatile entertainment hall, the 12-way adjustable luxury airline seats, the only left and right adjustment design in the same class, the three-row stretch lounge, and the only three-row sunken design in the same class. It is worth mentioning that in the 2-person mode, the maximum trunk volume of the Wind Planet Sea V9 reaches 2792L, which instantly transforms into a 1.8m double bed room.
As a "big guy", the Wind Planet Sea V9 is equipped with Dongfeng Group's latest Mach 1.5TD hybrid high-efficiency engine, with a thermal efficiency of up to 45.18%, which is the only hybrid engine in the industry that has been mass-produced and has been certified by the authority to have a thermal efficiency of more than 45%, with a CLTC pure electric range of 200km and a CLTC comprehensive range of 1300km.

Among them, the lane keeping and lane departure warning function, the high-speed NOA function make driving easier, and the 41-inch intelligent ultra-clear triple screen allows the family video room to follow the car.
